Abstract excerpt
We propose a model for dual effector functions of the known ras GAPs p120-GAP and NF1-GAP. This model is consistent with known biological and biochemical effects of GAPs in mammalian cells, but it is clearly not a proven hypothesis, and several difficulties remain in making this model convincing. One is the apparent difference between mammalian cells and yeasts, in which GAPs do not have a demonstrable effector...
